Lyrics

You said "I'd never ever hurt you"

You promised not to hurt me, but you broke that promise

Well, you lied and I'm trying to move on

You lied, and I'm trying to move on from the pain

But it's the

Continuation of the narrative

Third time that you called me up crying

This is the third time you've called me in distress

You're just doing that to get in my heart

You're pretending to be upset to win me back

Third time waking up in your apartment

Third instance of waking up in your place

And I smell like Henny from the other night

I smell like alcohol from the night before

'Cause I'm so weak when I'm drunk

I am vulnerable when intoxicated

So I'm getting sober, I've had enough now

Deciding to become sober, had enough of this

Girl it's over, I'm done with you

Declaring the end of the relationship

No goodbyes, no

No formal goodbyes

There's no love when I look in your eyes

No love reflected when looking into your eyes

I feel cold by your side

Feeling emotionally distant when by your side

There's no love when I look in your eyes

Repetition of the lack of love in your eyes

Oh, why

Expressing confusion and questioning

Why you turn your back on me even when you know I'm right

You turn away from me despite knowing I'm right

I'm sick of all the things you do, yeah I think that you're losing sight

Frustration with your actions, suggesting you're losing perspective

Yeah you can turn you back on me, I don't really mind

You can ignore me, but it doesn't bother me

But don't look back on me at no other time

Don't come back to me later

'Cause when you're back on me yeah I know that it don't feel right

Your return doesn't feel right to me

Yeah, sometimes you just make me wanna die

Expressing intense emotions, contemplating self-harm

Are you happier now?

Questioning if you are happier without me

Sometimes I just wanna die

Repeating the desire to die, questioning your happiness

Are you happy?

Directly asking if you are happy now

Whenever you're the center, oh you're sweeter than honey

When you're the focus, you're sweet, but with your lover, you're bitter

But your sour with your lover, what a sad way of life

Commenting on a sad pattern in your life

It's obvious I'm trying

Expressing the effort to make things work

Instead of clarifying, you ball me up and throw me away

Instead of clarifying issues, you discard me

Fifth time that you called me up crying

This is the fifth time you've called me in distress

You're just doing that to get in my heart

You're repeating the pattern to win me back

Fifth time waking up in your apartment

Fifth instance of waking up in your place

And I smell like Henny from the other night

Repeating the scent of alcohol from a previous night

'Cause I'm so weak when I'm drunk

Reiterating vulnerability when drunk

So I'm getting sober, I've had enough now

Choosing sobriety, reached a breaking point

Girl it's over, I'm done with you

Emphatically declaring the end of the relationship

No goodbyes, no

No formal goodbyes

Why you turn your back on me even when you know I'm right

Reiterating the feeling of being turned away despite being right

I'm sick of all the things you do, yeah I think that you're losing sight

Frustration with your actions, suggesting you're losing perspective

Yeah you can turn you back on me, I don't really mind

You can ignore me, but it doesn't bother me

But don't look back on me at no other time

Don't come back to me later

'Cause when you're back on me yeah I know that it don't feel right

Your return doesn't feel right to me

Yeah, sometimes you just make me wanna die

Expressing intense emotions, contemplating self-harm

Are you happier now?

Questioning if you are happier without me

Yeah, sometimes I just wanna die

Repeating the desire to die, questioning your happiness

Are you happy?

Directly asking if you are happy now
